Blindfight and Displacement

[Legildur]

Does the Blind-Fight feat function against a creature wearing a cloak of Major Displacement? Sorry, but this is for a 3.0E PbEM game.

Would the answer change under 3.5E?

From the 3.0 SRD:

Cloak of Displacement, Major

This item appears to be a normal cloak, but when worn by a character its magic properties distort and warp light waves. This displacement works just like the displacement spell and functions continually.

Displacement (Brd 3, Sor/Wiz 3)

Emulating the natural ability of the displacer beast, the subject appears to be about 2 feet away from his true location. He benefits from a 50% miss chance as if he had full concealment. However, unlike actual full concealment, displacement does not prevent enemies from targeting him normally. True seeing reveals his true location.

Blind-Fight

Benefit: In melee, every time a character misses because of concealment, the character can reroll the miss chance percentile roll one time to see if the character actually hit...

I believe that the miss chance granted by Displacement is from concealment so IMO Blind-Fight would work against it.

 

[James McMurray]

The miss chance is most definiitely caused by a variety of concealment. Thus the feat ill help against it.

And if your DM thinks it will not help, close your eyes before striking and open them afterwards. That WILL help.

Especially if the displaced guy is flanking you

But beware of the flanking "changes", we're talking about 3.0 here
